Summary |
"Through the Columbia University Extension, accordingly, there was planned a semester of study of group leadership, to be conducted by Professor Harrison S. Elliott and members of the Inquiry staff. The students were to be drawn from the cooperating bodies and were to meet the following requirements : (1) They should show some promise of group leadership. (2) They should secure field work in discussion-leading with groups connected with their own agencies. The course was carried out in the spring semester, February 2 to May 21, 1927, with sixty-eight students. The results of their cooperation have been such that the Inquiry is now under request from many quarters to continue the enterprise as a piece of educational pioneering especially addressed to the complex institutional life of our day. Before committing itself, however, to repeat this special service, the Inquiry offers the present booklet by way of interpreting the project--believing the resources for developing it to be now so promising that other educational agencies will be encouraged to take it up for the scientific advancement of group experience in all parts of the country"--Preface.
